I've ran tube tires tubeless forever without ever doing a thing!!!!
Once in a while one is a slow leaker, but never enough to go through any extra installation steps.
All I do is make damn sure the wheel is nice & smooth so I know the bead is seated as good as it can.

Same here.M/T 26x10x15 bias ply slicks. One leaked, but takes a week or so to go flat. Never ran tubes. I ran radials on front, and didn't like the sketchy feel on the big end. Went back to a drag radial. Much more stable now. Running Sportsman's on the front should help a lot. Mixing them IMO is not a good idea. I bought the slicks over one winter after buying a pair of AlumaStar 2.0's from a friend with Sportsmans mounted. Then found out they would not clear my calipers. Bad planning on my part.
